Chapter 174

Pregnancy (2)

However, he was nearly thirty-eight years old. She heard that when he was in Ganzhou, he once married a woman from a good family. Unfortunately, after only two months of marriage, the woman contracted a serious illness and passed away. Since then, he has always been alone, following Xiao Kezhi’s side.

Chu Ning thought about this, and asked again, “Do you think that General Jin has been married once, and he is a bit older, so he is not suitable for you?”

Cui He lowered her eyes and shook her head, sighed softly, and said, “How could it be? Although General Jin was born into an ordinary family, he did marry a wife, but now he is a close minister of the Holy Majesty, and countless officials in the court want to make friends with him. It’s just…this maid has recently been surrounded by the noble ladies, and I am afraid of causing people’s comments. What’s more, the general is now a guard and works in Changan. In the future, he will always be transferred to other places, ranging from three to five years to ten or twenty years at most. This maid is unwilling to leave Your Highness…”

All the female officials in the palace came from official families, and she was the only one who was the maidservant of the empress, so Chu Ning had already attracted some comments, and she had to do a good job in the academy to suppress these voices.

At this time, if there were any further involvement with the people in front of the Imperial court, it would only bring more pressure on Chu Ning.

Hearing what she said, Chu Ning understood her concerns. She couldn’t help feeling a little emotional in her heart, “You have always been thoughtful. But this is a major event in your life. You shouldn’t think about me, you should think about yourself. General Jin is loyal and reliable, and if you are really interested in him, don’t miss it because of other things. Otherwise, I will regret it for you for the rest of my life.”

Cui He nodded, didn’t speak any more, and just absently picked up the pastry on the side and put it into her mouth.

The two were silent for a moment before Cuihe got up to leave.

…

At night, Xiao Kezhi walked quickly into the Ganlu Hall with snow all over his body.

In the hall.

The warm and dry air in the hall hit, immediately melting the snowflakes on his hair and shoulders into crystal clear drops of water.

Chu Ning came up to him with a smile and went to untie his belt with his hands. She took off the wet outer robe, but before she brushed off the crystal from his hair, she was hugged into his arms, “The inside is dry. I can hug you this time.”

Xiao Kezhi was thinking about the words of the imperial physician’s order, and he didn’t dare to let her suffer the slightest chill. Now that he must be in the house after being exposed to rain and snow on weekdays, he dared not touch her until he was dry.

“What’s the matter? Just for a while, Your Majesty? Why are you in such a hurry?” Chu Ning was itchy when his cold cheek rubbed against her neck, and couldn’t help but shrink back her head and laugh, “The face and hair are still cold!”

Xiao Kezhi smiled muffledly, ignored her, and asked the waiter next to him directly, “Is the bath soup ready?”

The servant hurriedly lowered his head and replied, “It’s ready.”

“Let’s all go down.” After he finished speaking, he immediately picked up Chu Ning…and strode into the bathroom.

In the bathroom, dense water vapor rushed towards the face, immediately covering the two of them with a layer of humidity and warmth.

Chuning leaned in Xiao Kezhi’s arms. Her originally fair cheeks were stained with a faint pink blush, and her slightly parted red lips became moist and plump.

“Your Majesty? I have already bathed.”

Xiao Kezhi put her down, but his hands didn’t move away from her waist. He measured her current stature through the clothes.

Living in Ganlu Hall for several months, she ate and lived very comfortably every day and was nourished by the nourishing formula ordered by the imperial physician. Today’s figure was more plump and luscious than before, with regular curves.

His heart was agitated, and it blended with the dense water mist as if water droplets were dripping on the soldering iron, making a sizzling sound.

“I’ll have to take a bath later, let’s do it together—you forgot, what day is today?”

A deep and hoarse voice sounded in her ears, and Chu Ning was startled, only then did she remember that today was the ninth day after her monthly bleed passed, and these few days were the time when she was most likely to conceive.

Every few days, he was extremely excited, and sometimes even made her a little overwhelmed.

“Your Majesty? Take it easy, A’Ning is afraid of getting tired—”

She was blushing, but before she could finish her sentence, he had ripped off the clothes that were originally intact on her body, leaving only a thin obscene dress.

“I’ll try my best.” Xiao Kezhi carried her into the tub that was already filled with water and sat leisurely by the tub, resting his head on the edge of the tub, palming her waist with both hands, admiring the flow of the bath water. The scene of the thin obscene dress climbing up inch by inch, and then sticking tightly to her skin, his mouth responded.

The answer was very perfunctory.

After all, he was full of energy, he usually took pity on her frailty and never had too many needs, but only on these few days of the month, he would completely let go of himself, pawing at her to his heart’s content every night.

Speaking of it, it was to make her conceive a son or daughter as soon as possible, but in fact, only he knew what it was for.

In the past few months, her stomach had not moved, but he had not felt anxious, and he still enjoyed it every month.

Chu Ning was so dizzy from the steam, she hurriedly put her hands on the edge of the tub, lay on his neck, rubbed his ear, and whispered, “Your Majesty, the soldiers from Ganzhou will return tomorrow, we are all going to meet…”

“Don’t worry, I have my measure.” He chuckled, stepped on the splashed water on the ground, and strode back to the bedroom with her in his arms, “Tired? Hold on, it will be fine soon…”

Chu Ning couldn’t help giving him a reproachful look.

The “soon” in his mouth was naturally different from what she expected.

The night was long, the wind and snow were blowing outside the hall, and the cold wind was blowing, but the house was full of enthusiasm, strong and beautiful.
